Love from a stapler to a sneaker

You would never stay in one place
You seem to always have a purpose
A destination to be at
The disappearing act is your signature exit
Others may say because of your name and what you do
You would sneak out with my heart
Breeze past me before I even realize it was gone 

But they didn't know that I
would have taken bullets for you
When you came home with signs of Life's tears,
I could mend them back
People usually come to me only when they need me
to put things together
but babe for you,
I wouldn't mind anytime

If you would allow me a hollow space,
I would fit into it with no problems
and make it feel like home there
so you can always have home 
Because they didn't know that
while you came back worn and stained,
while you show them off like medals for
overcoming the obstacles,
you never did it for the destination
you did it for the journey.
 And journeys can get lonely
Journeys can cause friction to the sole

But I got that cool touch
The Superman exterior to weather the storm
A bite that can pierce through the war
So you won't have to go on a journey alone 
When it is time for a new unknown location to discover
I will leave the office life
and you will finally get to know the world
off the tracks

So you can keep going
I'll be there to make sure things won't come undone
and your steps won't get clumsy
Because it never matter if they didn’t know
That together we were already and always 
The destiny

A poem I've finally got to typing down. I think romanticizing a love between inanimated objects are just a fun theme to play on so here it is hoping you find the puns and enjoying it. Do leave a comment too. Thanks as always.

Updates + Big Announcement

I thought I start off how dormant this blog has been with a good ol' update post. Cause there's nothing like going back in the blogger grind than just telling y'all what's been up since the last one. It's been a year since that post so ya girl has went through a whole LOT. I am now finally in my first year of degree, I got into the high committee for my DJ Club, I've been more creative with editing photos (check it out on the gram @twistlist ) and moved to a better apartment where I can finally COOK along with dope housemates. Through all the stress and never ending work I got from school, life honestly has been really good to me and I'm just grateful to be where I am. Won't lie though; I had my dips this past year with adulting, getting things together and balancing it all. Self deprecation is a habit I am trying to curb and not do as often since its sort of my coping mechanism to stress. We are not about that this year, not anymore. I'...

Haul+Review: Beauty Edition III

BIORE UV AQUA RICH SUNSCREEN I always enter the sunscreen section of drugstore with some concerns. Its just tough when you're oily in one area and not really in others while trying to get a sunscreen that accommodates those two in one face. While being such a integral part of skincare, it is also sometimes the least thoroughly thought of product unless you were off on some tropical getaway. You might think that SPF found in your bb cream to be a great add on but it doesn't mean you can depend exclusively to it as your sun protection even if you use it daily. It just won't stand up to a regular sunscreen. However Biore seem to have a range of sunscreens to cater to what you're looking for so I bought this one. I don't have the original packaging but I do remember that it promises a semi matte finish and no lingering white cast. Which I'm happy to report that it isn't causing me breakouts or leaving me looking like a ghost. It also seem to be well aft...

The Bean Factory

At home, I am a study chameleon. I not only rarely use a table and chair, I can sit on floors with books on sofa or beds or just using beds for hours. Basically, you won't find me on a table and chair unless I go out to study. For a change of environment with the hopes of getting more done than by myself, I go out mostly with a friend to find just how many cafes aside from Starbucks and Coffee Bean have a working environment that allows us enjoy a good drink beside our notes and math frustrations. So far my reoccurring haunt as of late is The Bean Factory. Shoutout to Chan Yng for introducing this cool place to me. Decked out in a rustic with a dab of modern minimalism decor, this cool cafe is located on the first floor at a corner on one of the blocks at Lido Plaza. The seating area is basically sort of split in to two where one area is black comfy leather chairs and brown brick walls that for some reason makes you feel at home. The other area are some high rise table and cha...
